ONE HIP DOWN ONE TO GO
Today Nancy had a successful hip replacement on her left hip. Had to get up at 4 to take a 20 minute shower, left at 5 for her 6 a.m. appointment with surgery started at 9:30. After post-op recovery she was placed in a really nice room at 3 p.m. She had a lot of pain med coming into the room but was lucid and told all the nurses in recovery about her family so they came in the room recognizing her son, John and daughter, Victoria and knew my name. We stayed with her until after she ate at 5 leaving her about 6:30 so she could get caught up on her sleep.
Her doctor was very positive about the surgery and she was not in a lot of pain when we left but had hit her morphine button a couple of times. She was sleepy.
We had a good time with my daughter, Kathy and her good friend Carol, this weekend at home. Kathy got to meet Vicky and her son Clifferd when they came out to pick up Nancy's car Saturday. They only had time to tour the house and visit a minute or two with Kathy before going back to Granbury. So I now have my car to use.
Nancy went to SS with me where we learned more that we wanted to know about early Judges including Gideon and his son who killed 70 of his brothers to take charge. One younger brother lived to challenge him. We attended church with two baptisms and four young people coming into the membership. Our graduating senior, Emma Bennett was honored with gifts. One was a prayer quilt that I got to tie a prayer knot for. Nancy made a hominy casserole for the pot luck dinner that went over well.
